Basics

	Carving is one of the things that you need to know how to do to snowboard. A carve is when the boarder goes on the edge and slows himself down. you need to transfer your weight from one side to the other. Sometimes you slow yourself down and sometimes you speed yourself up.
	Stopping is one thing that you definitely need to know to keep control. To do this you need to transfer your weight to the back edge and lean back. if you do this right you will stop if you do it wrong you will fall.`
	The chair lift is your access to all the slopes and trails. To get on the chair lift you take one foot out and pull forward and wait. the lift slowly comes around and picks you up. to get off you slowly glide away.

	Fakie is when a rider who would regularly ride normal rides backwards. It usally occurs when a rider finishes a trick and goes down the landing after doing a spin or flip. You are also able to go fakie at a rail or box and this gives you a chance to spin and land regular.
	Most of the time people who are lefty are goofy stance. All that it means is that your bindings are facing the opposite direction than usual on the board. If you were to look at the board from the back they would be pointing left.
	Regular stance is when the bindings face to the right when you look at it from behind. Most people ride regular however some are still goofy.
